### How to find Google Font files?

Go to Google or DuckDuckGo and search e.g *"google fonts poppins github"*

### Step by step

1. Get your custom/Google font. The layout is based on 3 font weights. Regular (400), Medium (500 or 600), Bold (700, 800 or 900). \
   **a.** If you are using *italic* style, then you have to upload italic font variants for all font weights.
2. Sometimes, users don't want to use medium weight. If it is your case, remember to set the **Font weight: Medium** to **400** *<mark style="background-color:yellow;">(Customization -> Google Font -> Font weight: Medium)</mark>*
3. Set the **Font Name** *(Space - Customization - Google Font - **Font Name (Body))***
4. **Upload the font package** *<mark style="background-color:yellow;">(Space -> Advanced -> Font files)</mark>*
5. [**Add Raw SCSS code ->**](#raw-scss-to-add)
6. **Save changes**

[^1]: <mark style="color:orange;">Change this to your own URL with http\:// or https\://</mark>
